At-Home Acne Face Mask

Clear Your Skin With This At-Home Yogurt and Honey Mask

Breakouts are commonplace when temperatures rise, but before you head to the drugstore for over-the-counter help, here's a natural, at-home recipe to beat the early Summer heat — and the pimples. Better yet? Most ingredients are probably already in your pantry or refrigerator. This mask by Dr. Hema Sundaram hydrates and exfoliates the skin, while providing acne-fighting properties.

"Neem oil has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, which can help heal breakout-prone Summer skin," said Dr. Sundaram. But that's not all. "The fatty acids in neem oil build collagen and maintain skin's elasticity while plain yogurt works to soothe, nourish, and tighten." Get the easy-to-make recipe after the jump.

actually when you drain yogurt like that for several hours it becomes really delicious, much thicker and creamier. i like it way better than regular yogurt. if you've heard anything about greek yogurt which is becoming more popular then its the same thing i think (yogurt which has most of its excess moisture drained). anyway im iranian and we've always done this. you should try it!
